2019 Arctic Wolf 245rk4 fifth wheel. After pulling I always noticed rust over the back levelers. I would wash it off and it would come back. Used the air hose and blew out as much water as possible utilizing the holes for the brake wires. The reason I came up with was being stored with the holes...

Any recommended maintence intervals for tightening frame, stairs and axle nuts? Ive not seen anything on this and maybe I'm missing it. Theres definitely no torque specs out there, maybe from Lippert for the axles?

I'm curious as to the engineering logic on my new 5th wheel. I have tandem Dexter axles with each axle's data decal stating a capacity of 5K pounds. My assumption is that this number applies to the axle assembly consisting of the two hubs and adjoining cross member (axle). The trailer's weight...

I'm looking to get a TPMS and was wondering if any A-Framers out there are using one? I read that the TST 507 is a highly recommended product but I can't find one with only 2 transmitters. Also the price of $500 CAD is a lot of money for a single axle system. Anyone else using a TPMS?

Had major wheel bearing failure this weekend. Need to replace entire axle, wheel and break assembly. Searching for Dexter part number to make repairs.

Our 2019 19' has two axles with this on the sticker: Dexter Model 7024860 HF: 72.00 OB: 57.00 SA: 22DT Capacity: 3500 lbs. The each axle has a label, and this label has a serial number. This serial number is the same on BOTH axles. Does this mean that individually the capacity is 3500 and...

What is this issue! Dual axle rock wood 2104s. 2019 Is bearing broken free?

I just helped a friend repack wheel bearings on his Puma. Before we started on the adventure, I called Lippert and they said that they recommend taking hubs off and repacking bearings and not to use grease zerks to grease hubs. Once we got into it we found that spindles have a port to the...

Thinking about getting one of those "trailer aid" things or making something similar out of some 2x10's . Question is , isn't that a lot of stress on the "lifting tire" wouldn't it be too much ? I mean a TT is not like a car trailer where there's not that much weight on it. I'd like to pull off...

We just noticed on our last trip that our axle is off centered. Has any one else ever had this issue? I guess I have to call the dealer... That I really don't like to deal with.

Just got a wolfpup 16bhs and want to replace the tires with goodyear endurance. My question is how do I go about it?

Looking for information on greasing the bearings on Dexter axles?

Greetings all. Haven't found this info anywhere in the forum if it exists. Looking at installing the above product on the rear axle of my tow unit. Looking to see if anyone else has installed same, which poundage 1500lb or 2500lb, what was the results, do they recommend, or what you would...

Went to the CAT scales to weigh just my TV with my E2 hitch on with no bars, DW and my son... TV loaded as if we were going to hook up and go. I need opinions on numbers. Went through twice just to see if everything matched up. Steer Axle: 3520 (GAWR 3950) Drive Axle: 2560 (GAWR 3950) TAW...

Ok, I was trying to beat the traffic and cut the corner to much.. I hit my front left tire so hard it bounced off the curb about 2 ft.. knocked my bikes off the carrier.. now I noticed my torsion arm is bent in about a half inch.. the axle does not look bent just the arm.. can that arm be...

I have a Lippert tandem axle trailer. Forgive my complete ignorance on how to describe it, but the wheels have “movement” That is, they can pivot from side to side and aren’t fixed on the front to back plane. But if I’m making a tight radius turn they will “pop”. A lot. Is that normal? I...

Just made a visit to the CAT scales in my Ram 2500 towing 8500 lb trailer. Unloaded steer axle weight: 3800 Trailer hooked up, no WD: 3300 Trailer hooked up, with WD: 3480 How much weight should I shoot for to be returned to steer axle? Only transferred 180 lbs back and I am at maximum...

I have a 2016 wildwood 27RKSS Travel trailer and have the rear axle bending to negative camber on both sides. Was wondering if anyone else has had any issues. Thanks Rob

I have a 2014 FR Evo 2950 dual axle. I was checking the lug nut torque and lifting each tire to make sure they spin freely. 3 of the have a slight wiggle when jacked up but spin freely. One of them wiggles alot more than the rest, and it doesn't spin as freely as the others. Can hear it...

I bought a custom build 4-place jetski trailer, with 4 older jetskis - it was originally a single axle boat trailer modified to load 4 jetskis. I did some searching and found that the 4 skis weight about 2300 lbs combined (dry weight), so with gas, oil and misc I guess the skis are about 2600...

I had the chance to get each axle corner weighed this past Saturday, only took about 10 minutes. I have a DX3 37TS, it was fully loaded, I topped off the water tank, the black tank showed 1/3 and grey was empty. Here are the weights. LF-5,000 lbs RF-4,650 LR-9,350 RR-9,000 The front...

I am new to the forum, perhaps this has already been discussed, but on my 2018 Vibe 315BHK, I repacked my wheel bearings and replaced the grease seals as recommended. When I pulled the cap off the drum, I was surprised to find there was not a castle nut and cotter pin, rather an 1 1/2" nut with...

After reading the thread on packing bearings, I saw a lot of discussion on various axles. This got me wondering what type of axles my Catalina had. So after crawling underneath, the only marking I could find is this tag. I googled the numbers but can't get any results. Does anybody have some...

Anyone know what socket size to use on a 3500 lb Lippert axle for the axle castle nut?

Is anyone else had problems with tire wear on their single axle 17b? About five months after I took delivery of my 2017 17b I noticed that the tires were wearing on the inside. I contact the Dexter axle and they said they didn't cover alignment problems but that they would send me a new axle...
